we have the follwing problem with Eclipse 3.2.1
Eclipse is running on fedora core 5. We tried to create the workspace on
a NFS mounted drive (located on a windows server 2003 with services for
unix
3.5). While creating the workspace the following error occures:
Workspace in use or cannot be created, please choose a different one.
In the log file we can see the following:
!ENTRY org.eclipse.osgi 4 0 2006-10-11 15:21:00.259
!MESSAGE Error reading configuration: An error occurred while locking file
"/zfznv/users_nas2/install/.eclipse/org.eclipse.platform_3.2.0/configuration/org.eclipse.osgi/.manager/.fileTableLock":
"No locks available". A common reason is that the file system or Runtime
Environment does not support file locking for that location. Please choose
a
different location, or disable file locking passing "-Dosgi.locking=none"
as a
VM argument.
!STACK 0
java.io.IOException: An error occurred while locking file
"/zfznv/users_nas2/install/.eclipse/org.eclipse.platform_3.2.0/configuration/org.eclipse.osgi/.manager/.fileTableLock":
"No locks available". A common reason is that the file system or Runtime
Environment does not support file locking for that location. Please choose
a
different location, or disable file locking passing "-Dosgi.locking=none"
as a
VM argument.
Does anybody has a idea what could be the problem? Creating the workspace
on
the local drive works fine.
